RoWs close to 100% length with mapped status set to incomplete

Parish Number LGIS LOSM ΔL/L MS LE Notes
Beachamwell RB 5 3904 3817 −2.2% 2 2y Route obstructed by stinging nettles in open field near east end. Short section unmapped in OSM to the east of this field.
Beeston with Bittering FP 1 617 650 +5.3% 2 3m
Beetley FP 2 344 328 −4.7% 2 6w Short section through wood unmapped.
Narborough BR 6 407 406 −0.2% 2 7y On NCC Highways map, the BR6 line starts at TF74001185, which is about 75m from end of the U33313 at TF74031184. Surely the two should join. Also, the route appears to go under/through a building at TF73961186. This point needs a survey and then to be mapped appropriately in OSM.
Swaffham FP 25 349 350 +0.3% 2 7y Statement says E end of route is at Norwich Road. In GIS data the route stops short. Definitive Map is inconclusive.

RoWs not close to 100% length with mapped status set to complete

Parish Number LGIS LOSM ΔL/L MS LE Notes
Dereham FP 1 58 96 +65.5% 4 7y Route commences on Bush Lane at TG01691355, but this is not recorded as a Public Highway or Right of Way.
Dereham FP 1a 320 361 +12.8% 4 7y
Dereham FP 14 1351 1129 −16.4% 4 15m Route is obstructed just south of the stile at TF98251227, but there is a well-trodden alternative path around to the west. Part of the route to the south of the A47 is included in the GIS data, when it should be under FP 14a.
Dereham FP 14a 81 337 +316.0% 4 3y The route between TF98241215 and TF98161193 does not exist on the ground, but a bridge linking to Scarning FP 7 provides an alternative parallel route. Although the statement is not clear, I think this route should go all the way from the A47 to Stone Road at TF98161193. This means that Part of this route is recorded as FP 14 in the GIS data.
East Tuddenham FP 9 1558 1652 +6.0% 4 5w
Garboldisham RB 16 541 612 +13.1% 4 6y Statement says that route continues past NW end of RB 17 to meet public highway. Line in GIS data and on Definitive Map stops at RB 17. Should a Short spur of Parson's Lane be a Public Highway, even though it's not included on the NCC Highways map?
Gressenhall RB 7 72 56 −22.2% 4 8y OSM mapping need checking on the ground.
Hockering FP 12 14 31 +121.4% 4 3y Short link between Lyng Road and A47 bypass.
Kilverstone FP 1 41 69 +68.3% 4 8y Route impassible on ground, but can easily walk around the road instead.
Little Cressingham FP 5 197 226 +14.7% 4 7y Mapped route longer than GIS data, but I think the former matches the hedge gaps on the ground.
Lynford FP 6 256 24 −90.6% 4 23m The Definitive Map and GIS data show the path continuing over (half of) a footbridge at TL82548727. This is a 20m or so away from the location of the actual footbridge. The bridge is in the wrong place. The definitive line goes through the St Helen's monument site, and is therefore obstructed by the perimeter fence. It's easy enough to divert around it, but the route should be officially diverted.
Mattishall FP 1 1192 1563 +31.1% 4 3m Statement says route ends at "Stone Lane". If this is the C211A "Stone Road", then the GIS data and Definitive Map are missing the last 400m of the route, as it stops at TG03111226. If "Stone Lane" is not the C211A, then there is a gap in the network from TG03111226 to TG02801206, as this track is not recorded as a Public Highway. The segment from TG03111226 to TG02801206 is signed as a Footpath on the ground, and is mapped as such in OSM.
Shipdham FP 19 61 127 +108.2% 4 4y
South Acre RB 5 334 366 +9.6% 4 4y The Definitive Line is not reinstated across the field, but it is walkable (crops permitting).
South Lopham FP 16 539 600 +11.3% 4 10y Definitive Statement says route starts at Brickkiln Lane, but in GIS data, the route stops about 50m W of the lane (U33157). Unclear why, or what the status of the missing segment is. If GIS data is correct, there's a 50m gap on the network between U33157 and the start of the route.
Swaffham FP 19 83 104 +25.3% 4 20m
Swaffham FP 30 147 130 −11.6% 4 4y GIS data erroenously includes part of FP 65 between Mangate Street at TF82130905 and the true end of FP 30 at TF82130902.
Swaffham RB 47 1677 1791 +6.8% 4 7y GIS data and Definitive Map have route stopping at TF83110711, about 70m short of Watton Road -- the end point in the Statement. The gap between TF83110711 is not recorded as a Highway, so if the GIS data and Defintive Map are correct there's a gap in the PRoW network here.
Swaffham RB 54 1659 1547 −6.8% 4 2m
Swaffham RB 60 838 1999 +138.5% 4 7y Statement says RB goes from Westacre Road to Fincham Drove. Route in GIS data and on Definitive Map stops at TF79971021 after less than 850m. If the Map is correct, then this route is a dead end.
Swaffham FP 63 113 257 +127.4% 4 2y This Right of Way comprises several paths in and out of the Shambles. The lines in GIS data don't meet in the middle. Is the centre of the Shambles a public highway perhaps?
Swaffham BR 69 20 37 +85.0% 4 19m

Narborough FP 1 2402 2523 +5.0% 4 6y Statement suggests route starts from old A47 (now C537) whereas GIS data has the route starting from the end of River Close. Has there been a diversion order? There's evidence of a change being made on the Definitive Map, but no record in the Amendments section.
Shipdham FP 19 61 127 +108.2% 4 4y
South Lopham FP 16 539 600 +11.3% 4 10y Definitive Statement says route starts at Brickkiln Lane, but in GIS data, the route stops about 50m W of the lane (U33157). Unclear why, or what the status of the missing segment is. If GIS data is correct, there's a 50m gap on the network between U33157 and the start of the route.
Swaffham RB 47 1677 1791 +6.8% 4 7y GIS data and Definitive Map have route stopping at TF83110711, about 70m short of Watton Road -- the end point in the Statement. The gap between TF83110711 is not recorded as a Highway, so if the GIS data and Defintive Map are correct there's a gap in the PRoW network here.
Swaffham RB 54 1659 1547 −6.8% 4 2m
Swaffham RB 60 838 1999 +138.5% 4 7y Statement says RB goes from Westacre Road to Fincham Drove. Route in GIS data and on Definitive Map stops at TF79971021 after less than 850m. If the Map is correct, then this route is a dead end.
